I was no great achiever at school, either academically or in the sporting field... I was always tending to be in trouble.
Peter Hollingworth
Image
There were a lot of people who were willing to write a letter for me. Not because I was academically inclined, but because I worked hard.
Sam Smith

Perhaps the worst example of Smithsonian contempt for Jesus Christ is seen in its 1994 publication of a coffee-table book entitled Smithsonian Time Lines of the Ancient World ... This flagrant display of religious bigotry and discrimination in a book officially sponsored by the Smithsonian is intellectually and academically dishonest.
Tim LaHaye

Socrates ... did not write. It seems academically obvious that he perished because he did not publish!
Umberto Eco
Image
I am not an academic who happens to have written a novel. I am a novelist who happens to be quite good academically.

Genetic theories, I gather, have been cherished academically with detachment.

I became an actor because I didn't know what else to do. Academically, I wasn't good.
Anthony Hopkins
Image
I've always been a man of commitment whether it was academically or professionally. But spiritually I wasn't committed. I was talking the talk and I just wanted to make that commitment. It also made the commitment in other areas of my life stronger.
Avery Johnson

As we talk about the need to foster academic achievement, we must recognize and reward those who strive academically, just as we honor athletic champions. Meeting the President of the United States is just the honor we should bestow on our academic champions.

What parents said they valued most were discussions with teachers and heads, and what they wanted was more descriptive information in their children's school reports. This is particularly true for primary schools. Parents wanted to know much more than just how their children were doing academically.

I didn't do very well academically I was always in the bottom class.

In the area of trading, it is now an academically demonstrated fact that women tend to be a little bit more risk-adverse. They don't move positions as quickly and as erratically as men. Maybe it is a bit less profitably, but I think it would have been less risky.
Christine Lagarde

All the rest of us - you and me and even the thousands of soldiers behind the lines in Africa - we want terribly yet only academically for the war to get over.
Ernie Pyle

Do I think I'm under-educated? Academically, absolutely. I never took any exams, no O- or A-levels.
Hayley Mills

I also take pleasure in the so-called negative power in Grotjahn's work. That is, I love his paintings for what they are not. Unlike much art of the past decade, Grotjahn isn't simply working from a prescribed checklist of academically acceptable, curator-approved 'isms' and twists.

The big shock of my life was Abstract Expressionism - Pollock, de Kooning, those guys. It changed my work. I was an academically trained student, and suddenly you could pour paint, smear it on, broom it on!
LeRoy Neiman

Unchallenged, opinions became respected precedent then exceptionless concepts and sometimes even civil and academically accepted social law.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Image
I liked school and was a bit of an all-rounder academically, I struggled with music. I can't hold a note when singing and abandoned any notion of a career in music after barely scraping a pass in grade 2 piano.
Stephen Curry
Image
The past is interesting to me because it's been dumbed down or flattened out, or academically nitpicked so you can't get any life out of it, you just get data.
Toni Morrison

If the traditional Rs (reading, writing, and arithmetic) are the basics that we want our children to master academically, then reverence, respect, and responsibility are the three Rs that our children need to master for the sake of their souls and the health of the world.
Zoe Weil
Image
I thought I was gonna be an attorney, so I went to Dartmouth and I was a government major and I minored in environmental policy, and I didn't do anything academically around the arts.
Aisha Tyler
Image
I wasn't academically successful. And maybe I've spent a lot of my career trying to make up for that.
Anna Wintour
Image
Hungry children are distracted children. We want to make sure nothing gets in the way of our children performing well academically, including hunger.
Arne Duncan

I struggled academically throughout elementary school
